    摘要: An equalizer for a VSB receiver, which enables equalizations using segment synchronization information, has an extraction unit extracting the segment synchronization information included in the VSB broadcast signal, a storage unit storing the extracted segment synchronization information, and an equalization unit equalizing the VSB broadcast signal based on the segment synchronization information stored in the storage unit. The storage unit stores the segment synchronization information extracted from the extraction unit by field unit or by unit of N data segments within the field according to a channel state. More stable equalizations can be carried out in channel environment changes by storing segment synchronization information by the predetermined number of data segments and equalizing data within a corresponding data segment in a training mode while using the segment synchronization information every matching number of data segments.

    摘要: A digital television (TV) receiver using a vestigial sideband (VSB) system, and timing recovering apparatus and method for the digital TV receiver are disclosed. The timing error can be compensated for by rapidly and accurately searching the position of the segment sync signal using the Hilbert filter even if the strong 2-symbol-delayed ghost is applied. Also, the tracking performance for the timing error and the zitter performance can be improved by extracting the timing error information even from the signal having passed through the Hilbert filter.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for detecting a synchronizing signal in a digital TV receiver which adopts a VSB mode is disclosed. The apparatus includes a correlation unit for obtaining a correlation value between a received signal for each unit of symbols and a preset reference field synchronizing signal, a maximum value detector for detecting a location of the symbol having a maximum correlation value while performing counting operation for a unit of a variable constant added to the number of symbols corresponding to one field, a synchronizing lock signal generator for generating a synchronizing lock signal by testing reliability of the symbol location detected by the maximum value detector, and a synchronizing location controller for calculating a relative location of the symbol location having a maximum value to generate a corresponding synchronizing signal if the synchronizing lock signal is generated by the synchronizing lock signal generator. A synchronizing pattern is traced per field in even case that channel characteristic is seriously varied. Thus, the synchronizing signals are stably restored at high speed.

    摘要: The HDTV receiver system includes a pre-detection processor to filter a digitized signal before detecting the sync signal. The pre-detection processor eliminates the effects of ghost signal which can cause distortion of the original sync signal. The pre-detection processor can be a tapped-delay-line filter, a blind mode equalizer, or both.

    摘要: A digital television signal receiver includes a bin amplitude comparator for symbol decoding and match filtering to recover data synchronizing information from selected bin amplitude comparator responses generated during data slicing. The bin amplitude comparator concurrently supplies bin occupancy results for an amplitude slice including a value +S and for an amplitude slice including a value −S, which values +S and −S define the positive and negative excursions respectively of a binary data synchronization signal, current bin occupancy results being grouped together as two-parallel-bit serial input signal to a shift register clocked at symbol rate. Match filtering to detect data segment synchronization symbol code sequences is provided in accordance with an aspect of the invention by an AND gate supplied bits from selected storage locations in the shift register as wired input signals. In other match filtering performed in accordance with another aspect of the invention, a digital adder network receives bits from selected storage locations in the shift register as wired input signals, and a threshold detector responds to the summed bits exceeding a threshold value to detect data field synchronization symbol code sequences.
